In this episode of On the Porch with Munchies and Murder, we take a deep dive into one of the most disturbing crimes imaginable: filicide — when a parent kills their own child.

Known as The Filicide Report, this episode explores several real cases, the psychological and social factors investigators often uncover, and why experts believe these tragedies have been increasing in recent years. From warning signs that were missed to systemic failures that left children vulnerable, we break down what happened and what might prevent the next case.

Filicide cases shake communities to their core, forcing us to confront uncomfortable questions about family violence, mental health, and intervention.

Grab a snack, pull up a chair on the porch, and join us as we examine the cases, the patterns, and the hard truths behind The Filicide Report.
